The Witch Hunt of Giribala Singh: When Social Media Trolls Did Moral Policing of an Ex-Judge

If you have been following the case of Twisha Sharma death case in media, you would agree that this is a clear case of “media trial”. One can clearly observe that only one-sided stories are being planted in the media by the deceased woman’s family, either as a cope up mechanism or perhaps to coverup all the wrong doings and sins from their own past. There are some TV channels who are doing more of this smear-campaign, like Republic TV. Main target of these media-monsters is the ex-judge Giribala Singh and her only fault is that she is a “mother-in-law”.

First of all, there is absolutely no proof linking her to the woman’s death. The woman died on the roof of the house and CCTV footage shared on media shows her on the ground, helping some men take the body to the hospital. So, what is her crime for which she is getting haunted by media?

It seems Giribala Singh’s “crime” was that she questioned her daughter-in-law about her past affairs and multiple physical relationships before marriage. Apparently, the woman had hidden all these things from her in-laws before marriage and accepted it only after marriage. Anyone in Giribala Singh’s place would have been upset and angry at her daughter-in-law. We can debate on her choice of words, but we can’t debate on whether she had right to question her daughter-in-law. She had every right to question her. Then what is the problem?

The problem lies with the family of the deceased woman. It seems they are running this whole campaign in order to hide their own irresponsibility and shortcomings in helping their daughters before her death. Here is how:

1.      The woman was taking mental health related medicines.

2.      She had done abortion and needed to recover.

3.      She was facing cold-behaviour from her husband from “love marriage”

4.      She kept begging her parents to come and take her  

Still, her parents did not help her at all. 

But the victim being made out of this whole mishap is the “mother-in-law”. These pathetic media people are still stuck in Ekta Kapoor serials like stereotyping of saas-bahu relationships and it is such a disgusting mentality.

It is high time TV media people and social media trolls use their brain before parroting the slanderous accusations of only the deceased woman’s family. If they do not have intellect and courage to do proper analysis, they need to stop this non-stop “witch hunt” of the poor mother-in-law Giribala Singh and wait for the investigations to conclude, for the final verdict on what went wrong with Twisha. Om Shanti.

Twisha Sharma Death Case: Why should parents be blamed even in case of “love marriage”

  

If you have been following the TV news coverage of Twisha Sharma death case, you would realise that her parents are clearly blaming themselves for not being able to save her. And this is happening despite the fact that Twisha had found her own husband digitally on a “dating app” and hers was a “love marriage”. Do you see any contradictions here?

Typically, in an “arranged marriage” situation, where the daughter has limited decision making rights and parents make decisions to shortlist her match, if the groom turns out not-good later, the daughter gets right to blame her parents for “ruining her life”. But how about “love marriage”? In case of Twisha, thanks to her parents, she was educated, financially independent, and empowered enough to make her own life choices. She found her husband-to-be by herself and dated him for several months before introducing him to her family as her match. There was about 6 months gap between engagement and wedding, which was again the period during which she could have seen any red-flags and backed out. But we can guess that she was confident about her man and hence went through the marriage. And soon after the marriage, everything falls apart. Post marriage, she relocates to her in-laws house in Bhopal, loses her work-from-home job, gets pregnant, her some conflicts with her husband, and now she felt “trapped”. Her independence was gone, her previous lifestyle was gone, her husband started behaving coldly, and perhaps she thought that once the baby was born, she would not have got chance to get out of the marriage, hence she did an abortion. Everything she did, she did on her own and her parents were merely spectators or support groups. But the question is, if she was herself responsible for everything she did, did she have right to blame her parents?

From what we see from the chats shared in media, Twisha clearly blamed her parents for sending her back to her in-laws house (which any family would have done). There was clearly no physical threat at in-laws house in Bhopal, as not a single message she sent to her mother pointed at any threat. She was seen asking her mother to “come and take me back tomorrow”. In the chats, her parents never committed at bringing her back permanently, and although they did make a ticket booking but Twisha did not know. And then suddenly, her death happens. Since her death, her parents have been blaming themselves as if it was all their fault. How is this fair?

Does this mean that if parents choose a person’s life-partner in an “arranged marriage” scenario, they would be blamed if marriage turns bad later; and even if the person chose his or her own life-partner and did “love marriage”, the parents would still be blamed if the marriage turns bad? There is clearly no logic in all this.

But relationships run on emotions and not logic. It does not really matter who caused the bad things to a person, or whether the person brought self-inflicted pain, his/her parents would “always” blame themselves for not being able to save their child. That is the sacred thread of parent-child relationship which has remained pure no matter how commercialised and materialistic our modern world has become. Hence, being a parent is clearly always a “losing game”. This is why it is the biggest responsibility one can ever have.

It is time young men and women need to understand their world and their parents correctly.

Twisha Sharma Death Case: Twisha’s family should not be able to terrorise others merely because of a “hunch feeling”

  

If you have been following TV news coverage of Twisha Sharma’s death case, you would have seen statements and videos from her parents, openly blaming and threatening her in-laws family, in particular her husband and the mother-in-law. I saw one video where Twisha’s mother openly says on camera that she would “kill” Samarth Singh, Twisha’s husband. And why? Because she “thought he killed Twisha”!

The important point to consider in this case is that there is so far absolutely no evidence to suggest that Twisha was murdered or forcibly hanged by her husband or in-laws. Since the postmortem at AIIMS Bhopal confirmed sui*ide, her family started demanding second postmortem in Delhi. If that also came out not in their favour, what would be their next demand and where will it end? There has to be some basis to suspect that Twisha’s in-laws were involved and there was some foul play. Perhaps that is the reason why the Bhopal court did not grant second postmortem request to her family. Perhaps they thought that if they granted once, every other family would keep demanding in similar manner. As I said before, there has to be some basis to suspect foul play and so far, there is none.

We have also seen videos and interviews of Twisha’s mother-in-law where she is visibly distressed because of the accusations on her and her son. Twisha’s husband Samarth is absconding, perhaps fearing a witch-hunt and fearing for his life, and would surrender to the court when he feels safe. I am not sure if what he is doing is good or should he risk his life and surrender now to satisfy the media and Twisha’s vengeful family. But one thing is for sure: he is terrified, his mother is terrified, and only Twisha’s parents are to be blamed.

While proper investigation should definitely be carried out to bring out the truth, and now the case is with CBI, at the same time, why should Twisha Sharma’s family be allowed to make sweeping accusations at her in-laws without even an iota of proof? They are carrying out absolute terrorism without regard to what effect their actions could cause. What if the husband witnessing a witch-hunt against him also chooses to take some wrong step? Going by the events so far, Twisha’s mother would certainly be satisfied with such an outcome, and it won’t matter to her whether he was actually guilty or not.

Not only media, but the government and the Police are also being seen sympathetic to Twisha’s family in this witch-hunt. And it has become a very sorry state of affairs. I don’t understand why Twisha’s family should be allowed to openly threaten and terrorise another family merely because of their “hunch feeling”.

Think about it.

Twisha Sharma Was a Textbook Woke Woman: And This Irony Died With Her

  

If you are currently consuming any type of mass media in India, you are likely aware of the Twisha Sharma death case. TV news channels are presenting every minute detail of the case as if it were a matter of great national importance. The deceased woman’s family is from Noida, and since most national media channels have their studios in Noida, this explains the disproportionate coverage of Delhi-Noida-NCR events.

One aspect of this news cannot be ignored: Late Twisha Sharma was a “textbook woke woman.” Here are a few points to support this assertion:

1.   She received a good education up to the postgraduate level and worked for many years.

2.    She chose to join the glamour industry, as she found her calling there.

3.    She married at the relatively advanced age of 32.

4.    She selected her own life partner.

5.    She met her partner through a digital dating app.

6.    She chose a man from a different caste.

7.    She dated him for a year before marriage.

8.    She entered into what is called a “love marriage.”

9.    She terminated her pregnancy of her own free will.

All these points align with the description of a modern, empowered woman. Yet, the tragic end of Twisha’s life makes this fact deeply ironic.

For years, traditional Indian values and ways of life have been ridiculed by modernists. Some of these traditional elements include:

1.   Allowing parents to choose a life partner, as they have seen the cycles of life and are believed to make better decisions.

2.    Marrying at the “right age” (early twenties) and having children at the appropriate time (twenties or early thirties).

3.     Avoiding work in the glamour industry, which is often considered “sinful.”

4.  Choosing a partner from known family connections or with social validation, reducing risks of misrepresentation or fraud.

5.     Marrying within one’s caste to align family values and increase compatibility after marriage.

6.    Avoiding boyfriends or girlfriends before marriage, keeping marriage as a “sacred” bond.

7.    Never aborting a pregnancy, as childbirth is seen as a divine blessing.

Modernist propaganda has long dismissed these traits as belonging to “uneducated, backward families” living in the 18th century, insisting such values need eradication.

At this point, it is immaterial whether Twisha Sharma committed sui*ide (as claimed by her in-laws, doctors, and police) or whether she was murdered (as speculated by her parents). From the chat messages shared in the media, it is clear she was sad, frustrated, and deeply troubled in her marriage. Her “love marriage” had failed from the start, her pregnancy was terminated by choice, her husband had stopped communicating with her, and her parents were not of much help. The “empowered woman” narrative promoted as a panacea by modernists failed miserably, and someone must answer for it.

All the woke female journalists and celebrity women who sold us this “empowered woman panacea” need to be questioned. If a “textbook woke woman” like Twisha Sharma was not safe, what right did they have to discard, denounce, and ridicule traditional Indian values as outdated customs? What is wrong if men and women take help from parents in finding the right match, marry at the right age, have children at the right time, and build a life together in a way that benefits both family and society?

These questions have been entirely missed in the debate surrounding this case. The media is busy sensationalizing, the deceased woman’s family is consumed by vengeance, and ordinary people are caught in the middle. It is high time that common people start questioning those who spread propaganda but disappear when faced with difficult questions.

Our society cannot outsource its thinking ability to TV channels and modernist celebrities parroting Western values as a cure-all for India’s problems. We must wake up, use our own judgment, and create a culture that is safe for women, families, and society at large. This is the only way to prevent more innocent women from becoming another Twisha.

Om Shanti. May Twisha's soul gets peace, and she is reborn into a happy long life.
